Hmm, Do I have incredible luck? I just sold an '85 van with 145k miles on it. I never did any engine work, and the previous owner said that he never did any either(he had no reason to lie because he gave the vanagon to me). In fact, he gave me the vanagon because he thought it needed a head gasket. It would run but badly, blow lots of smoke etc. I put a new ignition contol thingy on.(actually I stole one off a wrecked saab(different bosch number but it still worked) that said telefunken on it). I didn't have the money to fix the loose front end and the quarter sized hole in the exhaust 2" from cylinder #3 so I sold it for $600. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- How to find me: Home: School: RR 2 Box 34b 1060 Morewood Ave. Vail Hill Road Box 1273 Lyndonville VT Pittsburgh PA 05851 15213 802-626-9032 412-862-3006
